A bridge saw also know as a rail saw, will make accurate cuts a much easier and efficient task. On this type of wet saw, the tile is kept still and the blade is moved through the tile. Now the Saw comes with an attachment at the back of the blade to collect all the dust and water, referred to as "Zero Dust" which makes this Saw even better. The Viper Blade shown in the video is an upgrade from the stock blade that comes with the saw, which makes for much faster cutting.
The RUBI DC-250 range of tile saws is formed by machines with mobile heads offering the professional tile Installer maximum functionality and reliability.
The DC-250 is ideal for intensive cutting of glazed and stoneware tiles, as well as for cutting porcelain tiles or the occasional cutting of natural stone.
Available in two models: 850 and 1200, with cutting lengths of 38.6 and 47.4 in. respectively (including plunge cut).
The motor assembly, mounted on sliding bearings, of the DC-250 offers maximum precision and cutting quality, as well as the possibility of miter cuts on pieces up to 41.73 in. long.
Their removable aluminum tables facilitate cleaning and maintenance of DC-250 tile saws, and the folding leg system with built-in wheels facilitates moving and handling of the cutters.
The DC-250 includes a Arrowhead 10” diamond blade. This continuous rim blade allows you to make cuts in all sorts of ceramic tiles, with optimum results and good performance.
The 1.5 HP motor, with a thermal protector, is perfect for cutting porcelain tiles.
The DC-250 850 includes an adjustable lateral stop (0° to 45°) to make repetitive cuts easy and practical.
The DC-250 1200, on the other hand, has a square that can be adjusted up to 60º degrees to facilitate angular cutting of large format pieces.
Its large work area (39.37x19.09 in.) is ideal for working with large format ceramic tiles and the working height of 33.27 in. provides the professional with better ergonomics. At RUBI we have always been concerned about the health of professionals. The concept of ergonomics is always present within the design of our tools, as we believe that safety and minimizing the risk of injury at work are essential for health and proper performance.

I've been using a rail saw for a few years now and they are great, especially for large and irregular tiles
My father bought one 6 months ago and I love it. It’s a bit hard to set up and fill with water but it’s an amazing investment.
I've been using this saw for about 6 months now and it has been great. Moving it from job to job is tough-I work alone.
Really you like this one? The instant rust, no ability to balance, low tollorance on the tables and once you bump the water box forget cutting a miter on full length. You sure you know what you are talking about...
When i got into doing tile years ago I took many wets for a test drive. I settled on a QEP 40" rail saw. In my eyes it was the only way to go. Made cutting 36" tile super easy with out going off line, not to mention plunge cut. But the time has come to go bigger as 48" is the 36.
I had a QEP saw, I was going to toss it, I gave it away instead.
Thank u , I had a scepture German but the blades hard to buy aldo not good and legs keep falling off when move it and it’s cost £1000 it does the job but no way is it as good as this , thank u I need to buy as I borrow my one to some one left it in his garden covered over , it doesn’t work now , love this one thank u great review u really did well
Hi am powa i love all rubi tools and i will be soon getting one of that wet saw
Cool machine
I have these saw is amazing
That's a heck of a saw...I received my montilit masterpiuma P3 from you're store yesterday!!!! So excited to finally have a good cutter. The cuts it makes are amazing, tried some mozaic scraps I had and it didn't do as well as I hoped, I need to get the rubber pad that goes on it I guess
Glad you like the cutter, the rubber mat will help quite a bit.

Hi sal ! When on a 45 °angle. Will it cut in a straight line on the tile ?
Always have the problem for instance when I mark 14.3 cm on a
Tile of 60 cm the other end is 14.4 cm , because the 90 ° angle is not that accurate.
Looked at montilit aswell but so much more expensive .
Basically have around £700 - £900 to spend but what best bang for buck thanks sal , matt
Buy the dewalt. Many of us use that. It s easy to carry, works great
will this thing cut 3" marble? or what about that porcelain paver stone
Hi Sal, Thanks for posting this video. Do you have any general thoughts on a bridge saw like this one vs a more common (in North America) sliding table? I’m in search for a new saw. I’m debating on the choice of a Rubi DC250-1200 (bridge) and the DeWalt DC36000S. Thank you.
For large tiles the bridge saw is a much better option and is more capable, The new Dewalt I think is reaching the limit of what a tray can handle in my opinion, I can't see it getting bigger than what it is now.
Hi Sal, I have some problemes with an Rubi DS250N 1500. Can you help me ? When I finish the cut, I have 4mm less then when I started the cut. Its a new machine....
Hi sal what's better a dewalt sliding table or something like this? Can both do the same jobs? Can the dewalt do Anything more than this? Thanks matt
Two different types of saws, one is better at something than the other, but all things can be done by both. For accuracy the bridge saw, for versatility the table saw, for large long tiles the bridge, for transportability the dealt. I have both.
Can it be used for a cross cut on a 48" tile? Doesn't seem like there is an easy way to support it perpendicular to the machine.
Max tile size it can cut is 48" a tile that size on a diagonal will not fit, if that is what you mean, however you can by extension tables to support wider tiles.
Is this aluminum construction or plastic? Top rail looks good. How about weight? I bought two imer combis which weighed close to nothing but the construction is plastic which caused the blade to wobble after only one building. Maybe your use for this saw is different then mine.
The description has a lot of info in it, however this is avery sturdy saw, no plastic.
Mine is not cutting straight. Any suggestions?
I just bought this machine and the fist 10 cuts was perfect after that start to cut 1/8 off there is something I can do ?or should I return it?
mine starts cutting funny half way through and curves left... like WTF
You ever figured it out? Thinking about buying one
I’m not the tile expert and just researching this saw. But I know on my current saw when the cuts curve one way or another it’s usually a dull blade. Not sure about it being off by 1/8 or 1/4
I'm little late, but try scoring the tile with blade before making the final cut. The blade may flex on thin cuts
quick question. if we put a wood blade on this, can it cut wood too?
no
A little off topic, but have you done a video on how to dress a blade? Or do you have any tips? Thanks for your video's and your shared knowledge Sal.
Best thing is a dressing stone for diamond blades amzn.to/2A8zCxz run it through a couple of times, blade will be like new.
Sal DiBlasi I have a Marshalltown 15382 1 x 2 x 8-Inch 60 Grit Rubbing stone that i use to break the sharp edges of tile. Think that will work?
Try it. if it does you saved some money.
Great video as I’m right on the verge as if to get one or not ! This has certainly helped me ! Are you still using it ? And just out of curiosity! Are you originally from England! You have a lot English in accent that’s all ha !
Yes, still use it when I need a big saw, Not from England, but good guess.
England?? That's Massachusetts north shore if I ever heard it!
Hi Sal. I m thinking to buy one. Is it worth? I work lonely, is possible move (load, on load , moving) it by myself? Thx in advance
It has wheels, and is a bit heavy, but I load and unload it from my truck by myself. You will not get it up the stairs though by yourself.
Do you still use same saw today? Daily? Anything changed that affected the quality?
I am actually using this saw on the current job, however, it is not the saw I use every day, just for tiles 24x24 or larger. That being said, still good as new.
@@SalDiBlasi oohhh so you use it for LFT only.
I wanted to give away my cheap ridgid saw. I guess I should keep it for daily use. Thanks for the tip I got out of this
Have you noticed any flaws with rubi saws I had to take a table saw back twice the ones we get in uk are made in Taiwan so much for being Spanish there snips went was downhill to I've lost confidence in rubi now shame because always used to be great
Your video reminds me that when cutting with a wet saw.. I sometimes experience the tile cracks at the end of the cut. What can I do to prevent that.
Better blade will help, slow down when you get towards the end, turn the tile cut from the other side, scored half way through the depth of the tile, then finish the cut, support the tile on both sides, put a piece of foam board under the tile, or any combination of these that come imidiately to mind.
Hope you had a great thanksgiving!
Thanks giving is over from severals week here already.
I've had luck cutting both ends first slowly and carefully and then the middle section at a faster rate
Çan you tell ,me what is the exact blade you put on the Saw?
amzn.to/3zqE6Lf
What typy of blade are You use for this saw??
amzn.to/3LRbjGs
It cant cut 45 with me
My name is Rubi and I install tiles. Lol!
So I guess you do not approve of a review every now and then?
Where can I purchase this saw?
amzn.to/3e8p8kw
Love your videos but man you gotta work on your audio. Drives me nuts having to constantly turn it up and down.
I have new equipment, latest videos are much better, however audio and lighting are always a challenge on the jobsite.
I have the MK diamond 24 and I'm very disappointed. It's just not accurate and Trey doesn't slide very smoothly no matter how much grease I put on it and to make matters worse the motor shaft snapped in half yesterday! No kidding the saw probably has 50 hours on it but it's over 12 months old and MK is just laughing at me. Is it a $500 motor. For those of you interested in buying a tile saw either do something with a DeWalt or go with one of these Bridge saws. I know they're heavy but between a big Rubi snap cutter and one of these Bridge saws I believe you would get a whole bunch more work done than messing around with that hundred pound MK diamond. Hope that help somebody
Thanks for that info.

I see dust to the left of the blade. Watch that Silka dust. I had plurisy from dust and I've just gotten well from xmas2017 . I could hardly breath.
What you see is water mist, not dust.
NO POWER.
I bought a Rubi Bridge saw and I got to tell you getting this thing to cut straight is a joke. I went through the whole manual I watched their videos I've been on the phone for 2 days with their reps, I've plummed it I squared it I've done everything I can and it just wanders all over the place it'll be 1/8 inch bigger one end Gurran f****** teed
If you are having trouble, don't cut all the way through on your first pass, line the blade up with the line, lightly score the tile a couple of times, then when the cut is deep enough, go the rest of the way. The scores are quick to do and will guide the blade so it does not wonder when you go all the way through.
Sal time to upgrade garage floor
My wife keeps telling me that.
এইচডি মেশিন দাম বাংলাদেশের কত
Too loud , sounds like a jet
They got to make them better
An use less water with more HP
Sal is sagging as usual:)
He's a G like that
That looked very awkward to operate
It is a big saw, but easy to handle.
apex keep in mind he is in less than ideal positions for the video so we can see the saw in action.
